Baked Crab Cake Recipe: Easy and Delicious!

We like Baked Crab Cake as much as we like the classic fried version, it's just that baking seems to fit some recipes better than others.

Here’s a recipe for baking crab cakes. Enjoy!

Pre-heat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.

1 pound crab meat (we recommend fresh lump crab meat, but canned OK, but rinse it)
2 slices dried bread (remove crusts)
½ cup finely chopped onion
¼ cup milk
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
½ teaspoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon chopped green pepper
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon Old Bay Seasoning
¼ teaspoon salt
2 eggs, beaten
2 tablespoons olive oil

Heat two tablespoons of the oil in a skillet (medium heat). Add onion and celery. Sauté until soft, let cool.

Mix all ingredients together and shape into patties. Place on a cooking sheet lined with tin foil. Chill for at least a half-hour in the refrigerator so that cakes are firm.

Remove from fridge, place in oven, and cook for 20 minutes or until golden, turning cakes over once, half-way through.

Baking tip: spray tops of crab cakes with Pam or similar cooking spray to get a crusty top. Be sure to spray the other side when you flip them over!

Serve warm. Enjoy!
